Cody Gakpo tells Curtis Jones 'Santa's come early' as the Liverpool midfielder is praised for his 'very hard work' by his Anfield team-mate after starring with two goals in Carabao Cup victory

Cody Gakpo warmly praised his Liverpool team-mate Curtis Jones after the 22-year-old starred in his side's Carabao Cup thrashing of West Ham on Wednesday.

Liverpool set themselves up with a semi-final clash against Fulham after putting five past David Moyes' side, with Jones scoring twice in the Anfield encounter.

Jones has been hard-pushed for starts at the Reds this season with the midfielder making three starts in the League Cup, but featuring in Jurgen Klopp's starting side just five times in the Premier League.
